Question

**(A):** For the reaction $2H_2O_2 \rightarrow 2H_2O + O_2$, the $n$-factor of $H_2O_2$ is 2. <br> **(R):** In a disproportionation reaction, the $n$-factor is calculated as $(n_1 \times n_2) / (n_1 + n_2)$.

Answer: D

💡 Solution & Explanation

**Assertion:** In this specific reaction, $O$ goes from -1 to -2 (change=1) and -1 to 0 (change=1). For 1 mole of $H_2O_2$ disproportionating, the total change is 1. False. [6], [12] <br>**Reason:** The formula given for $n$-factor of a disproportionating species is a standard chemical relationship. True. [12]
